Catching Up on Applications and Introductions (self.meta)

submitted 1 week ago by Arthur to c/meta

Hey everyone!

Sorry for the delay in the application process, I was out of town and very behind. I just approved a bunch of new users today and over the last few months.

If anyone wants to introduce themselves, ask for recommendations, get help, etc feel free to reply. I would love to hear more about the people in our little community here!

Enjoy!

Updated to v0.19.10 (self.meta)

We have updated to lemmy v0.19.10, you can read the release notes here.

Small release, except one notable "fix/feature" is the removal of PMs when a ban happens... I think we all know who that is for...

Enjoy! Feel free to PM if you have any issues at all with the instance. I know I'm a lurker, but I am trying my best to keep the instance humming along.

This might be the end of Libby/Hoopla/Boundless for a lot of smaller library systems. :(

Why Roadside Picnic is One of the Best Sci-Fi Novels Ever Written (blog-on-books.blogspot.com)

I just finished reading Roadside Picnic for the first time and came across this blog post that I wholeheartedly agree with. Obviously the title is a little bold, but the body lays out a really strong argument for the beauty of this novel.

Thoughts on the TV Series in c/camphalfblood

I agree with this, I thought it was fun to watch but man the quality drop off after the first few episodes was rough!

What are some communities you miss on reddit? in c/fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Yeah I'm totally fine with that if MaelGuerra is up for the transition!

Obsidian Plugins in c/writing_lounge

[–] Arthur 2 points 3 months ago

I use Syncthing to sync my Obsidian notes to my phone and vice versa. On an iPad I use Mobius Sync which is a paid version for iOS. Not as ideal as free on Android, but it gets the job done. I know some people who use iCloud Drive from Mac to iOS so I would think that NextCloud would work...

We have updated!

v0.19.6 has the changelog that matters - https://join-lemmy.org/news/2024-11-08_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.6

v0.19.7 fixes three regressions found in v0.19.6 - https://join-lemmy.org/news/2024-11-15_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.7

No real new user-facing features, but a lot of optimization on the server-side to keep things snappy. Enjoy! Please reach out if you notice anything wonky!

We have updated! And now have the ability to create local only communities. in c/meta

[–] Arthur 10 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Haha I was just about to post an update as well. Great minds are timed correctly it seems!

We upgraded from v0.19.3 to v0.19.5. The release notes for v0.19.4 have all the goodies, v0.19.5 was more of a hotfix update. I will post links below to those. We also upgraded to postgres v16 which should quell some of the memory leaks we have been having causing unresponsiveness and slow performance (we'll see I'm still unsure if this will pan out.)

Thank you for the patience everyone!

Thank you for posting this deal, I just got to this book in my backlog and it slaps! It's extremely engaging I read it all day instead of working, I couldn't put it down.
